Lenovo just expanded its gaming peripheral lineup with the Legion Y7MG, a mouse designed for players who prioritize low latency and lightweight handling. The device matters because it brings an 8,000 Hz polling rate to a sub-60 gram chassis, a combination that reduces input lag for competitive gamers. Buyers looking for high-refresh-rate responsiveness without the weight penalty should take note of this release.
